I think it would be worth opeing a seperate thread which handles the "from Rocktechnoetcmusic etc. stolen Videogame Musics"

I disagree quite a lot, but then again I could be mistaken.

 

Rather funny

Title screen from the PCE shooter Hani in the Sky:


A fame art print from M.C. Escher called another world:

 

Wow, nice one!

 

There is also a scene like that in Dante's Inferno

 

Title screen in the Japanese home computer versions of Might and Magic:


Art by the late Frank Frazetta:

 

Nice find

Damn, these finds would be worth a printed book one day.

 

Hmm. Old videogames, classic works of art, countless copyright infringement issues... Looks like another job for ASSEMblers Triad friends :lol:

 

Again two finds from a colleague

Full Metal Jacket/NAM-1975


The sprite on the title screen of "The Kung Fu/China Warrior"/ Game of Death

 

How the hell did they get away with that! They haven't even tried to hide the fact it's a pure rip-off.

Yakumo

 

Man doom had and was inspired by some of the best music.

Metallica's Kill em all album, Pantera, AC/DC Etc. Robert Prince had damn good music taste.

 

Good question! Guess it wasn't caught wind of fast enough or just no care was ever given.

Great finds! I love seeing new stuff pop up in this thread. I never knew about a lot of these!

I found the Doom OST pretty obvious, it was a good thing! =]

 

Storm Master by Silmarils, this is based off a famous painting whose painter or name I can't remember:



I also remembered that the Realms of Arkania series and Spirit of Adventure had a ton of celebrity-lookalikes. Collected some of them here: www.hardcoregaming101.net/arkania/arkania5.htm
(scroll down a bit past the Spirit of Adventure review)

 

Just remembered this one:


Another painting by Frank Frazetta


Intro of Ys III (PC-Engine version)

 

It's more like, Battle Garegga takes inspiration from the general types of synthesizer sounds used, Chord Rhythms and structure. But there are many things done very differently between the songs. One is hardly a rip-off/copy/plagiarized off the other.
And if was and people sued someone, then music as a whole would fall to it's knees.

There are SO many, really, many many many many many songs out in the world that use similar Key's, rhythm styles and most often Chord progressions.


For all I care, I could say I invented the i VI III VII (in a minor key)progression in 4/4 time with each chord taking up a bar for a 4 bar progression. Provide proof and then start suing the pants off every band (read: like a billion)/musician that has used my music in this exact manner.


People use reference material all the time for thousands of different purposes.

It's like saying, that since I had someone pose for me to draw something that i'm stealing their likeness and body position as well their human anatomy.
